They reported a rare clinical case of a young woman with a bleeding jejunal melanoma, whose early clinical presentation was an intestinal invagination. The article is also referred to the rarity of gastrointestinal melanomas as well as their possible primary nature.展开更多

We report a case of synchronous multiple huge biliary mucinous cystadenomas with unique features. This is, according to our knowledge, the first report in the literature about three synchronously occurring hepatobiliary cystadenomas. Cystadenomas have a strong tendency to recur, particularly following incomplete excision, and a potential of malignant transformation. A therapeutic re-evaluation may be necessary when the diagnosis of hepatobiliary cystadenoma is made after the operation and an open liver resection should be considered.展开更多
